Birth of mew line...
modern (he)art -- beat -- THE CAN
new way of music -- full of prejudice
no "crazy swinging effects" talented
young people, who want to stay in line,
but can't--conservatory without music-
stand (the conductor works an the organ)
THE CAN will always consist
of 5 (five) soloists (in a super group?)
why then do they play together? In
the opinion of english experts :
" ... 'cause they are the best thing
that ever came from the continent!"

ha, i just answered to your (misplaced) thread on ile...
(a super-group?) without "in"
Karlheinz Freynik is the one who wrote (and translated, I presume) this originally

Jeez, where were all the girls into Can when I was at U of C?

nine years pass...
I mean it's obviously a rip but the art is credited to "the Can" so I have no idea who did it/how/why

I thought the illustration was by Petrus Wandrey. Usually considered "Pop Art" so appropriating a comic book image would be normal.
